What type of muscle tissue has neuromuscular junctions?
skeletal muscle
Which muscle tissue has gap junctions?
Smooth
Action potentials are conducted into a skeletal muscle fiber by?
C. neuromuscular junctions
Cardiac muscle fibers electrically connect to neighboring fibers by?
Gap Junctions
How would the genetic inheritance of a gene producing abnormal gap junctions effect muscle tissue?
The genetic inheritance of a gene producing abnormal gap junctions may be harmful and may disrupt the structure of muscle tissue.
What structural component of cardiac muscle cell allows for electrical current to flow from cell to cell?
Gap junctions. Gap junctions are connecting channels made of proteins that permit the movement of ions or water between two adjacent cells. They are commonly found in cardiac and smooth muscle cells.Read more: what-are-gap-junctions
Are cardia muscle cells electrically connected by gap junctions and behave as a single unit?
Because cardiac muscle cells are electrically connected by gap junctions, the entire myocardium behaves like a single unit, a functional syncytium.
Adult cell types you might expect to have gap junctions include?
heart muscle
Which of these junctions represents the connection between the tip of a neuron and a skeletal muscle cell from which Acetylcholine diffuses?
Neuromuscular
Plasmodesmata of plant cells are functionally equivalent to what of animal cells?
If the answer choices are a. Extracellular Martix b. Desmosomes c. Gap Junctions d. Tight Junctions e. Peroxisomes Then the answer is definitely C, Gap Junctions
The action potential is conducted into a skeletal muscle fiber by?
neuromuscular junctions Action potentials conduct down T tubules into skeletal muscles
What muscle types has only one nucleus no sarcomeres and rare gap junctions?
Multi-unit Smooth Muscle.
